Abstract
In this book david mcintyre, Professor of History at the University of Canterbury, gives a detailed account of a most important episode of british and global history, that is the fall of the british empire. The decolonization process that took place mainly after the Second World War was sudden and relatively rapid compared with the four centuries of british colonial dominance. Yet Britain's withdrawal from its former colonies and the acquisition of independence by those colonies were achieved gradually and according to a specific national and international context. how does this book account for the fall of the world's greatest empire? What are mcintyre's arguments to explain the complex process of british decolonization and what is his point of view about that episode of british history?
